  • apple is a publically traded company. it would be easy for intel to purchase apple. apple recently divided it's hardware divisions into macs and ipods. i think apple did this in anticipation of the this move and would eagerly sell the mac divisio…
  • aurora, i hope you are right, then apple will finally come out with a two button scroll mouse. they said apple will never come out with a cheap headless box. they said apple will never run on intel. they said apple will never produce a …
  • dj adequate, you and i are in a 100% agreement. i'm only speaking as an interested consumer of apple products. if i was going to give the benefit of the doubt, i would give it to steve jobs because i think he has earned it since he has come b…
  • no one has announced what chip is going to be used from intel. what might be good for dell might be good for apple. so no one knows except things that have been stated from the companies. one of which is that windows will be able to run on new ma…
  • "The fuss? Despite the positive spin Steve tried to put on this disaster, at best Apple will be lucky to retain some percentage of their current installed base a few years from today. Today Apple sells proprietary systems based on PPC chips. …
  • "Apple also confirmed that they would not stop customers from running Windows on the Intel-based Mac, although the Mac OS will not run on another PC. ?We will not sell or support Windows, but we are not doing anything in the hardware that would p…
  • couple of thoughts... i can see apple commissioning a powerpc chip, which i think is the most likely scenerio and a smart move to have multiple vendors for your chips. osx running on x86 would mean the computer hardware division would be assim…
  • i think apple learned a very valuable lesson. regardless of features and it's current iconic status, the price equilibrium point for an ipod is less then $500. psychologically, i don't think people will buy an ipod that costs more then a compute…
  • these pepsi adds are bad as in not good. they are just boring. chiat can't live off their 1984 add forever can they. these pepsi adds are worse then the powermac g5 adds and i thought that would be hard to do. is apple or pepsi producing these…
  • not exactly the same topic... hi gang, aren't you supposed to able to open word documents via pages and visa versa? i cannot open a word 2004 document with pages and visa versa. is this right or am i doing something wrong? thanks, …
  • why would apple wait to roll out this update? considering their powerbook sales sucked last quarter, why wouldn't they introduce these models in early novemeber for example for the holiday season? maybe they are trying to stretch out this out …
  • a little perspective... mac mini is basic machine. it will have basic machine features apparently some features compromised for design. i.e. laptop drive instead of desktop drive etc... come on people, basic machine for basic computer needs.…
  • couple of thoughts: 1. wouldn't it be better if apple doesn't respond to rumors? does it do them any good to address this. 2. what law is broken? 3. the san fransico news papers printed grand jury testimony about the balco case. it is …
  • only for selfish reasons. this isn't a reward to randy, all my sympathies go to the original owner. i just want them to get it back. i know what it's like to lose an ipod. chung lee
  • randy, i'm not piling on you. we have all done things etc... it's one thing to do something that might be unethical depending on the perspective but it's another thing to brag about it. why don't you just delete this thread? or, if…
  • if you use a fm modulator to drive the sound to your car stereo then it will sound like c&*p. if you have it hardwired then the sound will be much improved. at the very least use the cassette adapter as unelegant as it is, the sound will be …
  • nick, i agree with the tone of you analysis but to refine your point, i think he wants to enter the commodities market on his own terms. apple has released several commodities products already: wirelss keyboard, wireless mouse, isight etc... …
  • dj, i think you are making a fatal flaw in your analysis. instead of apple versus a specific manufacturer you should be comparing ppc to x86. in this scenerio x86 has a huge marketshare and developers will develop for it. sofware always dr…
  • randycat, that was a long reply and i even understood some of it. somebody should hire you to be systems administrator. i think what i was replying to was your generalization and dismissiveness in your original reply. you don't think faste…
  • randycat, i went from a 933 quicksilver to a 2 ghz dual g5. what i do is batch process large photoshop files in the thousands of images, i capture video, i render video, i edit video, i author dvd's. i have added additional g5's as my needs i…
